Château d'Échauffour is/was a property owned by the Claude-René de Montreuil located in Échauffour, Normandy.
Following the Jeanne Testard case, on November 13 1763, the King commands Sade to withdraw to Echauffour Manor, a property owned by the Montreuils, and to remain there.
Following this scandal, the Marquis de Sade is under house arrest for four months at the castle d'Echauffour. Renée-Pélagie de Montreuil, after her separation from the Marquis in 1790, resided in the castle with her daughter for most of the year until her death in 1810. One can still read their names engraved on the tombstone, in the small cemetery of the village.
